Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
The rust-debugging skill assists in identifying and resolving issues within Rust code. It can analyze error messages, suggest potential causes for panics or unexpected behavior, and provide guidance on using debugging tools like gdb or the built-in debugger. This skill is particularly useful for developers working with low-level systems programming concepts where errors can be subtle and difficult to track down.
When to use it
- Analyzing Panic Messages: You're encountering a panic during runtime and need help understanding the root cause from the stack trace.
- Debugging Memory Safety Issues: You suspect memory corruption or borrowing issues but are unsure how to pinpoint the exact location of the problem.
- Understanding Complex Errors: A compiler error message is cryptic, and you need assistance interpreting it and suggesting fixes.
- Using Debugging Tools: You want help setting up and using
gdbor other debugging tools for Rust code.
Key capabilities
- Error Message Analysis
- Panic Stack Trace Interpretation
- Memory Safety Issue Identification
- Debugging Tool Guidance (e.g., gdb)
Example prompts
- "I'm getting a panic in my Rust program:
thread 'main': called result.downcast_ref() on Result::Err. What could be causing this?" - "Can you explain the following compiler error:
cannot move out of borrowed content?" - "How do I use gdb to debug a Rust binary?"
Tips & gotchas
This skill assumes a basic understanding of Rust syntax and concepts. Providing relevant code snippets or error messages will significantly improve the quality of its suggestions.
